Operating modes
The new MOTOmed viva2 software provides two different
operating modes.
The
»standard mode« is suitable for most MOTOmed users and offers a
simple and quick access to the basic functions and settings which are
needed for a regular use of the MOTOmed movement therapy.
The »expert mode« is designed for advanced MOTOmed users and
therapists who want to edit the basic programs and create special
device settings. In the expert mode you are able to load additional
program packages, change the existing programs and save these
changes permanently. Additionally, full access is provided to all
MOTOmed settings.
Access to the standard mode and expert mode:
When you plug in the mains cable of your MOTOmed into the wall
socket, the MOTOmed will initialize automatically (during this time
there must be no legs/arms inserted). Subsequently, you can see the
start screen of the »standard mode«.
Having the MOTOmed in the stand-by mode (black display, continuous
green LED light), you can select between starting the MOTOmed in the
standard mode or the expert mode:

2 MOTOmax (MotivationProgram)
Steer the game character Max (or
his female friend Maxi) by using
your own muscle strength! The
game character will always lean
to the stronger »pushed « side
(movement direction »push » and
fig. 7
»down«). The goal of the game
is to train as evenly as possible
and getting a better coordination by achieving »jumps for joy «.
All important information (jumps for joy, champion points, gear,
revolutions, pulse (accessory)) will be displayed at all times on the
MOTOmax screen (fig. 7).
Jumps for joy (coordination): If you push exactly equally with both
legs (symmetry 50:50), the game character performs a jump for joy. As
soon as your pushing becomes uneven (to the right or left side), the
game character stops jumping.
5/6
10OPERATION
see page 6
see page 8
Champion points (strength and endurance): You can collect
champion points by staying on the colored podium. The lowest red
level provides the least number of points. On the yellow level you
achieve twice the number of points and on the highest green level
you can collect triple points. The more performance (results from
the adjusted gear and the active speed) you accomplish, the more
champion points you will get.
Alternative: You can change the reaction of the game character to
your pushing so that the character moves away from the side that
pushes most. To make this adjustment proceed as follows:
1. Access the start screen in expert mode.
2. Push button
3. Mark line 3 »program packages« and push button
4. Mark line 6 »pushing right, MOTOmax moves« and use button
6
to select »left«.
2
»setup«.

End of training: The MOTOmax MotivationProgram will stop
automatically according to the preset time or if you stop the training
manually (default setting: not specified). The character will stop
moving and the screen will freeze for an additional 2 minutes (if this
is the last phase of the program), so that the user can read the results.
Push the red »start/stop « button
8
to reach the start screen.
/
In general, the number of champion points indicates the muscle
strength/performance of the user. The number of jumps for joy
rather indicates the accuracy / concentration.
Usually you can only achieve good results in one of the two areas.
Higher strength input is generally connected to less precision. More
precision can better be achieved with lower physical input.

Course of the game:
1. The trampoline can be moved to the right/to the left by
accelerating (pushing) the right or the left pedal differently. In
doing so, it is important how much you are pushing each pedal.
2. The harder you push the pedal the farther the trampoline moves.
Pushing faster will move the trampoline more frequently.

fig. 9
3. In the beginning, Max moves towards the trampoline. The game
figure bounces off the trampoline in different angles upward or to
the side, depending at which point it hits the trampoline.
4. If Max catches a star, it will be »collected«. As soon as all stars are
collected the game switches to the next level (max. level 3).
12OPERATION
5. If no star has been collected within 30, 35 or 40 seconds
(depending on the difficulty level), a new star appears.
6. If Max hits the ground, it falls back to the previous level.
7. If you stop training actively, Max falls asleep and pauses. However,
the timer continues and stars reappear.
Levels:
The game consists of 3 levels. The goal
of the game is to reach level 3 where
the most stars are available and can be
collected.

4 Loosening program
Special sequences of passive movement help you to loosen and relax
your muscles.
The special MOTOmed MovementProtector provides a smooth, gentle
movement which can help you to reduce your muscle stiffness (tone)
and ease the spasticity symptoms, and loosen daily tensions.
5 Strengthening and endurance
The strengthening and endurance program is a special training
sequence, connecting basic endurance training with a strengthening
component. Thus strength and endurance, especially of the leg
muscles, can be trained. A strong and persistent leg musculature is one
of the most important requirements for a good walking ability and can
help to prevent falls.
You can individually regulate the resistance to your needs through
the simple MOTOmed guidance. A valuable addition to the endurance
program is the MOTOmed cardio16 pulse control (accessory, item no. 275 or 276), enabling a pulse-controlled training (resistance
controlled by pulse level).
6 Coordination program
The coordination program/4-Segment includes special training which
particularly targets coordination and concentration. The combination
between physical (input) and mental (concentration) activity can
cause positive cognitive adaptation effects and help to increase your
walking stability by controlling (coordination) your own movement.
In order to modify the coordination program/4-Segment or to
create an individual program, you require the accessory »4-Segment Coordination Program« (item no. 202).

SpasmControl and MovementProtector
The program menu (see expert mode)
allows you to activate or
deactivate the SpasmControl for every program individually, to set the
sensitivity of the SpasmControl and to determine the behavior after a
spasm has eased.
In the basic MOTOmed setting the SpasmControl reverses the pedal
direction after a spasm has been detected. The training is resumed
in the same direction. Go to the program menu to the SpasmControl
submenu and set line 2 »restore direction« to »on« if you want
the original rotation direction, e.g. »forward« to be restored after
loosening a spasm.
OPERATION
see page 21
The sensitivity of the SpasmControl can be adjusted in the settings
menu in the devices settings or during the training in the training
menu. With the »sensitive« setting, the MovementProtector is already
activated even after a short movement blockade (e.g. spasm), while
on the contrary it has a longer reaction span with the setting »less
sensitive«. You can adjust the maximum motor power in the »motor
power« settings (1-10).
A low motor power is recommended for rather weak users where
a too strong motor power could cause injuries (e.g. with severe
brittle bone disease or danger of luxation).
A high motor power is recommended if the user generally shows a
high muscle tone (e.g. strong spasm or rigor).
Automatic performance control
Certain active muscle performance can be specified (in Watt) for the
training feedback. The automatic performance control regulates the
resistance level. If your active muscle performance exceeds this preset
value the performance control function decreases the resistance level.
If your performance lies below the preset value, the resistance level
is decreased (up to the preset value). The pulse control can also be
adjusted during training in the training menu.
see page 24
In the program menu (see expert mode) you can activate or deactivate
the automatic performance control individually for each program or
set the performance (in Watts).
The settings are only valid for the current training program.
In case the pulse and performance control are both activated the
resistance level will be controlled according to the pulse control
settings.

OPERATION
A therapy program consists of
different sequences, the so called
»phases«. Phases are trained
subsequently and can have various
designs (training tasks). In order to
train different training tasks in
succession you have to assign
phases to the therapy program
accordingly (up to 30).
see page 24
Access via
the program
menu in the
expert mode
(page 29)
Program parameters define the basic settings of a program (e.g. name,
number of phases, SpasmControl »on/off« etc.) and are valid for all
phases. Phase parameters on the other hand define the content/
characteristics of each phase (e.g. training task, phase duration (min/
sec), passive speed, etc.) and are valid for the current phase only.
When editing a therapy program you can specify program and
phase parameters.

OPERATION
MOTOmed Cardio16 pulse control (item no. 275 or 276)
In order to train at an optimal resistance level at any time, you may
allow the pulse control monitor to control your training. For this you
can individually define a preferred pulse limit (upper and lower limit).
The MOTOmed automatically increases or decreases the resistance level
you are training with in order to keep your pulse within your preset
pulse range. Please consult with your physician about the optimum
training pulse.
As long as your pulse stays within the preset pulse range, the
resistance level will not change. The preset resistance level, e.g.
resistance level 10, can be divided into half due to an increased pulse
(in our example resistance level 5). As soon as the pulse falls below
the lower limit the resistance level increases up to the maximum
preset value (in our example resistance level 10). Despite of automatic
resistance level regulation you can use the buttons
5/6
( / ) to
adjust the resistance manually at any time.
If you wish to train with an activated pulse control you require a
pulse monitor by ear clip (item no. 275) or by chest belt (item no.
276) as well as the receiver within your MOTOmed operating panel.
In order to optimize the function of your ear clip you should massage
the complete ear including ear lap to increase the blood circulation
(at the beginning of your training or if the heart blinks orange, page
40). Furthermore do not place the ear clip on the cartilage. Attach the
cable to the collar of your shirt using the secure clip.

The following adjustments are available:
1 Pulse sensor
Activation, or deactivation of the pulse sensor.
In the settings menu (in expert mode) you can activate or
deactivate the pulse control permanently for all training programs.
2 Lower pulse limit
If the pulse of the user falls below this value, the pulse control
feature raises the resistance level (maximally up to the preset
value).
3 Upper pulse limit
If the pulse of the user exceeds this value, the pulse control
reduces the resistance level maximally down to one half of the
preset value.

to return to the start screen.
4 Automatic pulse calculation
The MOTOmed is able to refer to the date of birth saved on the
chip card to calculate the pulse limits (for a health orientated
endurance training).
5 Regulation of pulse
In order to have the pulse control regulating the resistance level
above the preset resistance level you can set the behavior of the
pulse control to »increasing«. For this purpose, go to the device
settings in the settings menu (in expert mode) and enter the
submenu pulse control (line 6). Thus the gear increases up to plus
one half of the preset value in case your pulse falls below the lower
pulse limit (e.g. to gear 18 like shown in the example on page 40).
Default setting is »relieving«.
see page 18
42
Activation of the pulse control during training
The pulse control can always be activated or deactivated in the
training menu. When starting the next training the settings will be as
originally specified. You will still be able to change the lower, upper
and maximum pulse value.
OPERATION
MOTOmed sam2 Training Analysis Program (item no. 230)
The training analysis program »MOTOmed sam2« is available for a
sophisticated analysis, storage and graphical illustration of your
training data. If you only wish to analyze your last training session you
can use the simple print program »MOTOmed sPrint«.
For this purpose a MOTOmed chip card has to be inserted during
training. The training data will be saved automatically to the chip card.
A training session of at least 20 seconds is required for the
MOTOmed to store the data. If a phase is interrupted before that
no storage point will be created.
You can use the »MOTOmed sPrint« in order to print out the most
recent training session. Start the MOTOmed desktop from the start
menu. Possible screen savers will be turned off during the operation.
With the keyboard function keys »F8-F12 « you can choose between
the different analyses. The data of your last training session will
automatically be evaluated afterwards.
In »MOTOmed sam2«, a more detailed analysis is available. The
MOTOmed sam2 Training Analysis Program comes with a short
instruction manual and during operation you can refer to a
comprehensive online guide (push »F1 «) during the operation.

4-Segment CoordinationProgram (item no. 202)
When using the 4-Segment CoordinationProgram you have the
possibility to specifically target and train in individual directions and
toward muscle groups specifically. In this context various training
tasks require different input, such as strength, endurance, coordination
and concentration. Each pedal cycle is divided in 4 single segments
according to the movement directions »push«, » down «, »pull« and
»up« (fig. 51-fig. 53).
1. push
1. push

The length of the colored bars
indicates the level of strength
applied in the particular segment.
With button
2
() the
performance in Watts for each
segment or each value displayed on
the overview screen can be shown
(fig. 17/fig. 18, page 16). Thereby,
you always get a feedback about
your training and can control,
adjust and improve your performance permanently. You are required
to train with one specific side only (left or right). Let the other leg/arm
be moved passively in order to achieve exact measurements.
Certain accessories may cause a false reading.
44
OPERATION
The 4 different segments (»push «, »down«, »pull« and »up «) can be
trained separately, with each other or in different combinations (2 or 3
segments combined). A special success bar gives continuous feedback
during training about how adequate you fulfill the task (given by the
segment combination) (fig. 53).
1. push

available for the coordination training.
The following segment combinations can be
selected as training tasks:

Segment version 0 All 4 segments should be trained equally, if
possible only with one active side, e.g. if only the right or left
side is required (right or left hand or leg icon indicated on the screen).
When pedaling only with one side, the strongest or weakest muscle
group (segments) of each side is displayed, detected, or documented.
Weaker muscle groups can be improved simultaneously, and muscle
force can be adjusted if necessary.
Segment version 1-4 Muscle strength shall be
applied on a single segment per revolution (e.g.
»push«). All other muscle groups remain passive, and are therefore
continuously supplied with blood.
Segment version 5-6 (two opposite active segments).
Segment version 7-10 (two subsequent active
segments).
Segment version 11-14 (three subsequent active
segments).
